About this house rental

Located just a short walk from Main Street this 1950 style home is both elegant and comfortable. The name “Sam Houston's Retreat” came from their favorite pet dog. You will see a variety of artwork throughout the house to remind you of Sam Houston. It is evident they have done and thought of everything to make each and every stay a special memory. Your hosts completely remodeled this awesome home in 2010 and 2013.

Walking into the front door you will be in awe of the beautiful living room. There is a red luxurious sofa with two comfortable chairs faced to enjoy both the fireplace and the 42” flat screen cable television and DVD player. There is also an awesome game table with cushioned straight back chairs to enjoy playing games or just to visit. Your hosts have provided books, games, cards and puzzles for you to enjoy during your stay. Across the hall from the living room is a bath with a large tile shower. The sunroom faces the patio and offers a beautiful setting with a majestic day bed with trundle. (Sheets in armoire).

Two bedrooms are exquisitely decorated to create both romance and royalty. The master bedroom has a king bed decked in an array of colors with the primary color being red. The armoire has another flat screened television. A loveseat in the corner is great for reading or just lounging. The second bedroom has a lovely iron queen bed topped with an array of pillows. A bathroom with a whirlpool tub and shower is found in the hall.

Do you enjoy being in a kitchen that is both efficient and awe-inspiring? This is the one. The spacious kitchen has everything you will need to create special meals or just enjoy your coffee in the morning. There is a stovetop/oven, large refrigerator, microwave, toaster oven, coffeemaker and stocked with dishes both to eat on and cook with.

Outside is a private stone patio with a wicker loveseat, chairs and grill The patio is perfect for enjoying Fredericksburg's crisp cool mornings. A board fence is perfect for your pet to run and enjoy a little exercise. The patio door does lock behind you so be very careful when going outside.

The home is pet friendly and will accept up to two dogs but each one must weigh 30 lbs or less. In addition, there is a pet fee of $27/dog/night. Due to the fact that HomeAway/VRBO does not allow us to charge for more than one dog at the time of booking, please let us know if you will be bringing more than one dog, so that we can make sure that you are charged the correct amount. If you bring more than one dog and do not let us know, you will be charged accordingly. Furthermore, please bring crates for your dogs and crate them in your absence from the house, do not allow the dogs on furniture or beds, and pick up and properly dispose of their waste. If these rules are not followed, there will be an additional $200 charge added to your reservation.

*Being close to a busy road (Llano St.), there is the potential for street noise.*

This is the third time we have stayed here and we love it! The house has everything we need. It is close enough to Main Street that you can walk there in a few minutes. We have already booked it for Spring. See you then. Fred and Teresa (And Martina - Service Dog)

Very nice, super cute property close to town.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Jul 2025
Lovely spot when you have pets. Out 3rd time there. Biggest thing is the traffic noise, apparently people driving diesel 150s need reassurance to really hit the gas so they know their trucks are working. But it becomes white noise after a while and it is a great space! so open and a nice courtyard. great for paws and nice for their owners. coffee maker crapped out immediately but that was quickly and efficiently taken care of so. Love the spot and the management just wish it was a bit quieter. then again if you are getting up to leave by 11 that is kinda helpful
